Sudden Flames Erupt in Mid-Air... What Caused the Fire?

How terrifying would it be if flames suddenly erupted in the mid-air sky?

Let us look together at the tense moment when even passengers stepped up to put out the fire on an Indian passenger plane.

This is a passenger plane traveling from Delhi to Chennai, India.

Bright red flames soar from the overhead baggage compartment above the seats.

Passengers urgently attempt to extinguish the fire using bags.

The cause of the fire was an auxiliary battery inside the cabin.

Although flight attendants succeeded in putting out the fire with a fire extinguisher, the passenger plane carrying over 180 passengers and crew members ultimately made an emergency return to the airport.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

As auxiliary battery fires have occurred three times within the past year at the same airline, concerns over in-cabin battery safety are growing.
